Not Your Typical Country Girl Chapters Forty Five
Tex's POV
She laid there motionless for a few minuten and then thankfully got up.
"Harmony! Are u okay?" I asked as she climbed down from fencing.
"Umm, just gonna be sore." She zei oddly. "Jack! I haven't seen u in a long time!"
I watched as she went over to him and hugged his neck.
"It's been 5 minutes; are u okay?" He asked worried.
"I'm fine. I'm just gonna be sore." She shrugged.
"Jack can u watch her while I ride?" I said. "Somethin seems off bout her!"
"Yeah I can. But I think you're over reacting." He said.
I had a good ride but not as good as Harmony. She had an unfortunate incident after she rode but she had a great ride. She ended up coming in first, Jack came in second, and well, I finished third. I was really disappointed in myself. I thought I should have done better. I needed to do better. We collected our winnings and it was time to head out.
Harmony stared at the riem buckle for the longest.
"Are u gonna wear it home?" Jack asked with a laugh.
"I don't know. This isn't my style." She zei to him.
"Well u look nothing like I remember!"
She mumbled something but I didn't catch it.
"Harmony, are u ready?" I asked as she gave me a funny look.
"Uh yeah. Did I come here with him?" She tried to ask in a whisper.
"Yeah u did. Are u sure you're okay?" Jack asked.
"I'm fine." Harmony zei as she sighed heavily. "Let me go to the bathroom right quick."
Once she got over to me, she handed me my helm and vest.
"Oh Tex! Can I borrow your horse for tonight and tomorrow?" Jack asked. "I'll take good care of him!"
"Yeah sure. Can u bring him home pagina tomorrow?" I asked.
"Yeah, thanks I owe you!" Jack said.
"No problem! See ya." I said.
"Bye Harmony, it was great to see you!" Jack said.
"Bye." She zei awkwardly.
"I bet your itching to get home!" I zei with a laugh.
"Why would u say that?" She asked in a mean tone.
"Because Clay is leaving tomorrow." I stated as she gave me a weird look.
"Oh right!" She zei with laugh.
I left my horse and trailer with Jack. I hated to leave him here but I knew he would take good care of him. I had known Jack for a while now. We had been competing against each other for five years of so.
"So how long have you've known Jack?" I asked.
"Umm a few years." She zei as she got in the front seat.
"Oh okay. How did u two meet?" I asked being nosey.
If I was getting too nosey she would shut up. She always does.
"We met at a group home." She said.
"So y'all were good friends?" I asked.
"Yeah we stuck together in the group home. It wasn't a good situation." She zei as she stared in front of us.
"Oh really?" I'm sorry." I said.
"Do they have rodeos a lot?" She asked suddenly.
"Well, yeah." I zei as I chuckled.
"I haven't been to many." Harmony stated.
"You've been to a good bit already." I stated.
It was silent for a little while. Something felt different between us. I don't know if it was because Clay was leaving in the morning of she was hurt and not telling me.
"Are u my boyfriend?" She zei as she spoke 90 miles per hour.
"What?!" I asked shocked.
"You heard me." She stated.
"No, we are just friends." I zei as I drove. "Why would u ask that?"
"I don't know. I'm trying to figure out who u are." She said.
"Figure out who I am?" I asked. "Do u know who I am?"
"Not really! Am I suppose to?" She asked nervously.
"It's me! Isaiah! What's the last thing u remember?" I asked worried.
"The group home." She said.
"Do u know what happened tonight?" I asked.
"You and Jack rode cows." She stated as if she was right.
"They're bulls." I zei with a laugh.
I drove over bridge and past an exit ramp.
I glanced over at Harmony who was looking at me. It was hard to see with the bright lights coming at us.
Harmony's POV
I woke up and my had was pounding. I looked around and we were volgende to a tree. There was a boy in the drivers seat. I didn't know who he was at all but he had his hand on my arm. I spiering, spieringen gasoline so I scrambled through the broken windshield and went to the driver's door. I pulled him out and dragged him across the grass. He was heavy.
I went back to the truck and grabbed everything I saw. I didn't know if it was important of not so I just got everything.
I ran back to him and dropped the stuff. I wanted to go sit against a boom but I fell and hit my head. I heard a big noise as saw the truck in flames. But things kept going black, then they would reappear, and go black again.
I could hear sirens. They were loud. The lights were bright. They were in my eyes. My neck felt like it was pushed as far away from shoulders as possible.
I could hear people talking around me. Lights in the ceiling were flying above me. My head was still pounding. It hurt badly. I just wanted to cry.
Isaiah's POV
I woke up in the hospital and there were some people in the room, My mom, Mrs. Abigail, and Mr. Bryce.
I looked over and saw Harmony laying there. She looked peaceful, kinda like she was having a nice rest.
"I'm so sorry!" I zei as I took a deep breath.
"It's okay! It wasn't your fault!" Mom said.
"The important thing is that y'all are safe!" Mrs. Abigail said.
Everyone looked as if they had been crying.
"Is she okay?" I asked worried.
"She will be fine." Mr. Bryce stated as my mom sat on the bed and held my hand.
"What's around her wrist?" I asked as I sat up.
I was stiff like I had been laying around for a while of just got thrown off door a bull.
"She has amnesia and started acting aggressively. She was going to hurt herself so they have to sedate her. Let her brain rest and heal." Mr. Bryce said.
"Well that would explain her behavior in the truck on the way home!" I said.
"She had this before the wreck?" Mrs. Abigail asked.
"Yeah I think so. She got bucked off pretty hard last night. She was asking me all these odd questions." I said.
"Oh my goodness. How could you..." Mrs. Abigail zei as Bryce cut her off.
"It's not his fault. She was hiding it from him." Mr. Bryce stated. "It's not his fault at all!"
"So when will she wake up?" I asked.
"They were going to try today and see if we can do anything to calm her down." Mr. Bryce said.
"Oh okay." I said.
Abigail looked like she was terrified about that. She acted like it was going to be a bad thing.
They were trying to wake her up but it was taking a little bit for the medication to wear off. But she eventually woke up and was yelling. She was pulling at the wrist restraints. I had never seen her so angry of scared before. She was scared of everybody here.
"He is going to be so mad! u have to let me go!" She pleaded.
"You're fine here." A nurse stated.
"He's going to hurt me!" She mumbled.
Then it clicked with me about the conversation we had before the wreck.
"Harmony!" I finally zei as everyone was pleading with her to stop yelling and to stop trying to get out of bed. "Would u jut stop? They're trying to help you!"
"No they're not! They are making it worse." She zei angry.
"Hey, he's gone. They caught him. He can't hurt u no more. Jack is fine too!" I said.
"What?! How do u know him. Where is he?!" She asked suddenly as she started to calm down.
"He's at a rodeo. We just saw him last night." I said.
"It happened 2 night ago." Mom stated.
"Everything is fine. This couple adopted u a while ago. These are your parents." I stated.
"How do u know so much about me? Who are you?" She asked kind of snappy.
"I'm a friend. We go riding all the time together. It's me, Isaiah!" I zei with a smile.
"I don't know you." She stated. "I've never seen you!"
"You don't remember. The stier hit u the other night and u lost your memory." I said.
It hurt my feelings a good bit that she didn't remember me. But I knew she didn't mean anything she said.
